Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueA NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Moore should have been long gone. The Bears pounced, and earned a B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Bears were there to profit. Malachi Moore, the No. 16 name on the board, should have been long gone before the 155th pick. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. Running back is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
In No. 18 they get a building block for the line at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick33 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at the Round 2 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick50 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
They will replay Tate Ratledge at pick No. 50 for years; that is how good the value is. It fills a real need, too.
Pick82 Rnd3 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker in the 82nd pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick155 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
You do not let a safety like Malachi Moore reach pick 155 and blink. They did not. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick204 Rnd6 Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim at the 204th overall pick is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick241 Rnd7 Ja'Quinden Jackson
Ja'Quinden Jackson in Round 7, Pick 27 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
